#3023: Tor directory authorities should not act as regular relays/hsdirs

-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
In the past, it made sense to use directory authorities for all other
network functions too, because they provided a significant contribution to
the network's available bandwidth. Now that this isn't so anymore, and
we're starting to see more and more bugs where the dirauths also act as
relays, we should change that so the dirauths can focus on providing a
consensus and bootstrapping functionality.
